Our décor offers much to delight the eye, including this screen for April adorned with the family crest of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, ruler of Japan in the late 1500s.

Said to be modeled after a military screen that Hideyoshi used at cherry-blossom-viewing parties, the combination of cherry blossoms and the paulownia crest strikingly conveys the graceful aesthetic of the Momoyama Period along with springtime cheer.

Every room offers distinctive touches such as this. We urge you to explore them in intervals during the course of your meal.

Hassun: Assorted Appetizers

Hassun: Assorted Appetizers

With the flowering of tea ceremony culture in Japan, the meal accompanying the ceremony came to include delicacies of land and sea served in a hassun (24 x 24cm) wooden box, to enhance guests’ enjoyment of their sake.

Formal Japanese cuisine today retains a course called hassun in which seasonal ingredients are presented with equal emphasis on visual impact and flavor.

The pictured hassun course takes the spring sea as motif, using seasonal seashells as vessels filled with succulent wild greens, abalone, shrimp and more, while sliced radish suggests waves on the shore. The vibrant presentation expresses the coming of spring.
